1983 Cadillac Flee2od Brougham d'Elegance in Jefferson, Wisconsin for sale in Jefferson, WI
Vehicle Description This car was sold new in Whites Creek, TN.
As with most Cadillacs, it was garage kept all of its life.
What drew me to this car is the low mileage and originality.
It has only been driven 48,446 miles.
The paint, interior, powertrain, wheels and trunk are completely original and in fantastic condition.
The Fleetwood Brougham d'Elegance is the top of the line sedan offered by Cadillac.
These car are very nicely equipped.
This particular car has the Oldsmobile LF9 Diesel engine in combination with the 200-4R overdrive automatic transmission and 2.
93:
1 axle gearing The most recent owned told of getting over 30 mpg on the highway.
The paint is original, but not without a few flaws.
In the case of this car, it would be appropriate to refer to it as patina.
The flaws provide character and are indicative that the car is very original.
But the flaws I am referring to are miniscule.
You might notice a small ding, or two.
You will find a few stone chips and thin spots in the paint.
But nothing unsightly and certainly no rust.
The bumper fillers are in great condition.
The white vinyl top is also original to the car.
Had the car been sitting out in the sun, it would have deteriorated after 40 years.
The tinted glass is all very nice.
The chrome and bright work looks great.
The white vinyl top is also original.
It too is very nice.
There are no cracks or signs of shrinkage.
It is still bright white and without discoloration.
The condition tells me that the car does indeed have low mileage.
The Dark Maple leather upholstery is fantastic.
There are no tears or split seams.
It is obviously original, as it has just enough character to tell you that it has not been replaced.
The door panels, carpet, floor mats and dash are all in wonderful condition and factory original.
The entire interior is in great condition.
It is clean and show ready.
The LF9 Diesel certainly has its detractors.
Those who appreciate the engine tell how economical it is and how durable it can be with proper maintenance.
